Dress To Kill Spring Launch @ Buonanotte
Dress To Kill Magazine launches their spring Pop Issue with a party at Buonanotte. I like the fact that it’s sponsored by Belvedere Vodka and Moet & Chandon, because free booze is just about the only way you’ll get me into Buonanotte.
Free. 6 – 9pm. Buonanotte – 3518 St Laurent.
